looking for stuff

Where-abouts in the world are you?

Duh, I know better than to forget that, but I did! NH USA.

Sneaks, I have the washer bottle and the door stop "rod" Maybe even the pin for the door stop...............not sure on that part, but I know the stops on the last two cars I have disassembled were identical. I have some cars to compare to for correctness though. I will check the integrity of the bottle before closing on any deal.

( the lid to the washer bottle is supposed to keep the pressure from getting too low to drive on the spare (special valve), I am not sure if the bottle I have has the correct lid or if it has the lid at all..........should though )

Sneaks,

I have a '68 parts car that probably has what you want. That's the good news. The bad news it's kind of buried at my "Old Volks Home" in northeastern VT. How soon do you want/need this stuff?

Al...whereabouts are you? What sort of Old Volks Home do you keep? I drive my Beetle up to the Northeast Kingdom all the time. Or I should say whenever I get the time and the salt is off the roads...BTW I noticed a very nice looking '66ish sedan, black, for sale in East St. Johnsbury not long ago.

Bill,

I am indeed in the NEK, in Lyndonville to be precise. The OVH is a collection of (mostly free) ACVWs that are living out their twilight years in dignity, where hopefully no crusher will ever find them. At last count there was 8 there, with a Rabbit truck thrown in for good measure. I have 5 more on the "waiting list" that need to be transported there when my sons and I get the opportunity (3 of them are on the other side of a '60s era homemade wooden bridge that needs some TLC)...

I had my '68 T-1 out for a spin around town this evening, just to keep things limbered up. The roads were pretty dry so salt wasn't too much of an issue. Damn, I miss driving a 'real' car all winter!

Where in ESJ was the black sedan? I go thru there regularly but haven't seen it. 'Very nice' sounds like it's out of my price range, but ya never know...

Used to play hockey in Lyndonville growing up (grew up in Whitefield, NH over by Littleton). Got a few lines on those particular pieces but thanks. I will most likely find more stuff I'll need\want so I'll let you know after the thaw, LOL.

Great spot. I buy tires from Everett in Red Village and punkins from the farm next door.

Cool. Unfortunately the only place here where I might store a collection is taken up by my neighbors' houses.

On Rt. 2 headed west just after ESJ center but before the railroad crossing. On your left at the top of a driveway.

I asked around at work to find out if anyone had noticed this car. I'll have to take a closer look!

BTW, my daily driver (well, for most of the year) '68 came from ESJ. It was parked at the intersection of rtes. 2 and 118 in the fall of '97. Bought it for way too much money and spent the next 2 1/2 years replacing a large percentage of the sheet metal. Ironically, it was a one-owner car from MA whose owner kept it going as long as she could, and sold it a local 'entrepreneur' for about 1/4 what I paid for it ( I figured this out later). Who said education isn't expensive?
